I really needed a WALL Calendar for work
Last year I got a FREE shutterfly calendar & that was nice
BUT I really wanted something FUN & different this year
So, I decided to make my own & create this fun magnet kind
I spent the whole day yesterday crafting
I pulled out all my "winter" themed everything
and created this:
I bought the Frame, Metal & Acetate calendar base from Hannahs Home Accents
I'm still not set on the frame color
I wanted something neutral BUT not Black, White or Brown
I ended up with this Tim Holtz Crackle paint in tattered rose
Heres a close up:
what do you guys think? should I change the color?
Here's a closer look of the details
January was REALLY fun to CREATE the snowflake theme was really cute
BUT February was filled with PINKS & hearts so you know I enjoyed that wayyyy more
LOL
Heres a sneak of next months calendar
I have a LOOONNNGGGG week ahead of me
I have to work from 8:30am to 8:30pm Oy Vey!
On the other hand I hope you guys have a great week :)
xoxo

I have a question where are the directions to create one of your own?

Do i really have the sense of mourning the loss of my youth and confusing about my future?

Hmm... Lindy im not sure if I'm going to save them after this year but I might bring it home instead of keeping it
At the office I was a little weery if this calendar would even work cuz I like to write events on my calendar...
I might just have to write all the events & b days on my planner instead....basically it's just for decoration & cuteness not so sure about the productivity part of it ;)
it took me a few hours to create both Jan & feb ;)
It's finding the little embellishments to go with it that took so long..... I attempted to start on march but I was having difficulties finding green/st Patricks stuff ;(

That looks like it took a lot of time! But awesome! Are you going to be saving them for years to come?
